Less Than 24 Hours

In 18.5 hours from now, I will be completing my last final exam as an undergraduate at Brigham Young University!  Woot Woot! 

Christmas Party

Last night, Joshua and I attended a fun Christmas Party with our co-workers from the BYU Richards Building Swimming Pool.  It was a good time as we ate delicious food provided by Connie Todd, who is our boss's boss.  I actually took teaching swimming course from him several years ago.  He has been a good friend to have during the years I have been at BYU.

We played a white elephant gift exchange game.  This was the 3rd year in a row that Joshua and I went to  the dollar store before his party to buy our gifts.  We always do a themed stocking.  This year mine was a relaxation kit, including a bath tub pillow, bubble bath, foot scrubber, and whatever else someone would need to de-stress in a relaxing bath.  Joshua did a superhero stocking.  It had 2 superhero puzzels, a spiderman squishy ball, 2 windup cars that light up and make noise.

This was our last Christmas party at Connie's house with the pool staff (it's a tradition to go to the party).  It was a fun night to send laughing with dear friends.

My First Business Trip!

Last week, I went on my first big girl business trip as a clinical assistant with Aspiro.  It was for the family seminar that Aspiro holds each month in Saint George, Utah.  To say the least, it was a learning experience.  It was fun but there was a lot of miscommunication that happened that I had to clean up.

It was fun because I went down with 2 of the therapists Jessi Irvine and Gordon Day, and the field director Todd Merrill.  We were given a stipend to cover food and hotel.  So we stayed in the cheapest place we could find.  It was 34 bucks a night.  It was simple but clean...all I wanted.  Going out to dinner each night was fun as they are hysterical people to be around and there is always interesting conversation.

Hopefully next months trip will be a little less stressful and better run.
